This research paper: A 6 page paper discussing the nature and origin of the complaints of the island’s residents that U.S. Navy training exercises are damaging their health and the environment of the tropical island off the coast of Puerto Rico. The U.S. Navy has had a base on Vieques for sixty years, most of which it has spent in training on the Vieques coastline. Vieques offers a unique environmental opportunity for the Navy. Naval sources say that Vieques is the only training ground it has that offers the capability to practice bombing, amphibious assault and ground assault all at the same place. Residents (U.S. citizens) claim that naval operations have caused irreparable environmental and ecological damage, and that Vieques’ higher-than-average occurrence of cancer and other diseases is a direct result of naval activity. The purpose here is to assess the arguments of each side. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
